Peppers, Tomatoes

Our garden is actually not doing too bad! We only lost one plant, and the ones that are left are growing like crazy, and amazingly are producing veggies. We have one pepper that is gigantic, and I have no idea when to pick it. It's a Marconi pepper, and they say you can pick it when its green but better/sweeter to wait until it turns red. It is over 6 inches long, and it is pulling the plant down to the side. Oh well, I'm hoping the flowers that have bloomed on the plant will produce and help balance it out. Our tomatoes are growing, and so are my cucumbers! Yes...I am a huge dork...I'm really excited about eating all of our "crop"The tall plants against the fence are cherry tomatoes and small yellow pear shaped tomatoes! When I posted a pic back in May they were shorter than that crossbeam they are towering over. (contain yourselves!!)
